Fusion Surgery for Spondylolisthesis and gym

im a 23 year old male with spondylolisthesis grade 1 with a dehydrated disc and sacrilization since birth. I am considering getting fusion for L4-L5 as it has been 10 months of PT already with little change. Before this I was an extremely active person with lifting and sports as part of my daily routine. My concern is whether I will be able to get back to the gym and football without any pain? Is the pain 100% gone after fusion and rehab? is sitting or standing too long still an issue?
